Um, they will work well for you if you ski groomers only at low speeds and you don't weigh much. Yeah, they are designed to be a ski that will take begginers to intermediate.

lol, I just had 666 posts... anyways, yeah, those are the mens, but they are beginner skis, they have a TON of flex, which is real bad, and the tails are SUPER soft... I wouldnt even ski on them at LOW speeds...

If you've got 1080s then you'll hate them. You'll end up never riding them.

No, and where the hell in the east are you from, there arent any 'shitty little jumps' at okemo or killington.

Funny how massive corporations and media giants like NBC refuse to support new skiing events like big air and big mountian, yet they use the latter's image to enhance their own. Actually, not so funny. Suck it, NBC.

Unless you got them for less than $50 you got ripped off...
use them for jibbing in the streets, but don't go up the mountain, they can't even go moderate speeds and everyone will laugh at you

ALRIGHT.. SPEAKING FROM SOMEONE WITH EXPERIENCE.. i got the verse7 lites *the women ones* and then i got the 1080s like a month later,and i only skied on the verse 7s one time the rest of the season.. i'm tryng to get rid of them actually! so i'd say, its not worth it..

I paid around 150 bucks for skis and S509 bindings....and i might keep them for the rails..

by the way whoever said the 1080s suck can go eat a big pile of shit....cause everyone knows that it is the best ski around

Well, I know how you all say they're shit, but I know a 13 year old who threw a 900 on those same skis. They were all he'd ever ridden, but now I think he is sponsored. I think that any ski would be good if you were used to it and hadn't skied anything better. But there are better skis.

Why not just buy a pair of snowblades and wear a one piece bright yellow suit. The blades would ski better.. :/
